Hurricane Gustav: online info

If you would like to keep informed about Hurricane Gustav, the National Hurricane Center has begun an experimental podcasting service, with podcasts issued every few hours during a hurricane landfall along the U.S. Coast or U.S. Territorial Islands. When a current podcast is available, a link to the RSS/Podcast feed and a link to the corresponding directory with the latest audio (mp3) file will be displayed. You can right-click and choose "save" to download the file; or Once the podcasts are older than 4 hours, they are no longer available on the page. There is also a Gustav information network set up on Ning, with bloggers posting information about major news events and alerts.
